Testurteil: "5 out of 5"
Test: Einzeltest: Panasonic HDC-HS80
Zitat: The good: + The Panasonic HDC-HS80 is a great camera to use – the button placement is intuitive and natural. The touchscreen is responsive and bright and due to its diminutive size – the HDC-HS80 is a joy to hold for long periods of time. The two biggest winners on the HDC-HS80 are the zoom lens and optical image stabilisation. This is the highest level of zoom we have seen out of all our recent camcorder reviews and twinned with the brilliant OIS, you never have to deal with shaky camera syndrome again! AVCHD format also meant that recordings were easy to get onto a computer and we were editing in no time at all.
The bad: - There’s not really much we can complain about on the HDC-HS80. Sure there are other cameras, offering better features – but none as good at this price point. If we were to pick out one negative – it would be that 3 megapixels is not really enough to be usable, however, this is really splitting hairs. The HDC-HS80 is great!
If you are looking to upgrade your old camcorder, you won’t find much better at this price range. The HDC-HS80 is small and has more features than you can shake a stick at. The lack of advanced manual controls may put some off, but for 90% of home movie recording the HDC-HS80 is fantastic.
